7.05 is what percent of 1700000 - step by step solution

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 1700000 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.
3. If 100% equals 1700000, so we can write it down as 100%=1700000.
4. We know, that x% equals 7.05 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=7.05.
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=1700000
2) x%=7.05
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=1700000/7.05
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for 7.05 is what percent of 1700000

100%/x%=1700000/7.05
(100/x)*x=(1700000/7.05)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x
100=241134.75177305*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (241134.75177305) to get x
100/241134.75177305=x
0.00041470588235294=x
x=0.00041470588235294

now we have:
7.05 is 0.00041470588235294% of 1700000
